A little bit about me

It is a privilege to work with families and their children. I want to create a safe and fun environment where kids are able to express themselves and grow.

I'd describe my personality as caring, adventurous, patient.

I like working with kids because I think we can learn a lot from them! Building connections with kids and families is a top priority.

I'm looking for a job that makes me feel fulfilled in life, that I left my mark on someone's life.

I started working with kids around the age of 11, babysitting for neighbors, friends and family. At 16 is when I started my first full time nanny position and absolutely loved it.

In my spare time, I like to spend time with friends and family. I love reading and playing with my dogs.

One thing you should know about me is that I am dedicated to creating a nurturing, safe, and fun environment.

My skills include effective communication, patience and understanding, I also know basic sign language and baby sign, basic first aid and CPR.

A little bit about me

Hello my name is Alexandra! I am 19 about to be 20 and I am looking for a part time job. I am currently on maternity leave with my son but I would love to watch someone else's child soon or maybe in a couple months depending on the situation. Although I am not yet first aid or cpr certified I would happily get either certification. I have never been a paid sitter for anyone but I raised all of my siblings and I have lots of experience taking care of children ( including my own child). I am a caring, smart, thoughtful, and all around good person. I hope that I can find a good job here:)

A little bit about me

Hi I’m a 20 year old first time new mom of a 2 month old and is desperalty looking to work again. My only inconvenience is I would have to bring my baby to work with me. I’ve cared for 4-5 kids at a time so I promise you it wouldn’t be a problem for me as long as it’s ok with you. My husband is in the army and child care is too expensive.
